The Epoch ET extended range version has been ** twice before, once is the body-in-white, clearly marked with the words "E0Y extended range version", and E0Y is the project number of the Epoch ET, and the other is the test of the actual car, but the chassis part was not photographed, and the muffler can only be seen at the tail from a distance, which is determined to be the extended range version of the test car, and the static spy photos of the real car were taken recently, which is basically at a glance. (**Without my permission, you may not use it without authorization, **to the headline number, understand the car emperor).
There are several test cars this time,It seems that the previous analysis if the rumors plan to go on the market at the end of the first quarter of next year,Then large-scale testing has actually begun before July,It's just that the real car has only been photographed recently,According to the state of several test cars that appeared this time,This possibility is indeed not low,Of course, there is no official announcement of the information,It can only be used as a conversation after dinner,After all, until the final official announcement,The possibility of any change exists。
In addition, the front face of the test car is basically not installed with lamps, it is indeed a bit strange, think about it carefully, this confirms the possibility that the test car has appeared in the first few months, because before June, in fact, in addition to the auto show car, all the road test cars are indeed lampless versions, and the last one or two months have only taken the full version of the lamps and lanterns The real car spy photos, so this detail reminds us that there is indeed an extended range version in the early road test car, but the real car has not been photographed.
Of course, the most important point is that the front face of several test cars is fully enclosed, at least there are no holes in the camouflage, indicating that the front face is fully enclosed, and it is more certain that the engine auxiliary air intake of the car solves the problem through the auxiliary air intake on the front bumper.
The other camouflage area is not large, and the newly opened fuel filler on the rear side is clearly recognizable, which is also one of the important bases for quickly identifying whether the car is a pure electric version or an extended range version.
Look closely, the size of the opening of the fuel filler is not small, the fuel filler is still temporarily placed, it is not strange, after all, it is a test car, not so much exquisite, the regular point is naturally to add a fuel filler fixing bracket, and then design a clamshell, this transparent glue temporary cover is only the test car can come out, how convenient how to come, anyway, the first batch of prototypes are not so particular, testing the entire powertrain is the key.
As for the chassis part, this time it is clearer, of course, it is also a temporary change of the test car, not a production version, many details are not so particular, mainly to complete the test project, it can be seen that the rear overhang structure has not changed any way, or the stout forged aluminum subframe and aluminum alloy five-link design, the rear drive motor is quite clear.
Of course, this is not the key, the key is the emergence of the rear muffler, the single-sided exhaust pipe, the early judgment of the exhaust line will bypass the battery pack from the bottom end of the driving side, now it can be seen that this judgment is completely correct, coupled with the emergence of the fuel tank, it is natural that the size of the battery pack is bound to shrink, at present, the possible pure electric range is more than 200 kilometers, and finally it is necessary to achieve a long range through the extended range engine.
Another test car shot just want to be clearer, and even saw the words E0Y range extension, as for the layout of the exhaust pipeline, just look at the picture above, the fuel tank itself is equipped with a black guard plate, not a plastic fuel tank, this part is not necessary to worry, Chery even Tiggo 7Plus DP-i plug-in hybrid version of the model uses a high-pressure fuel tank, completely in accordance with the rules, ** higher Star Era ET does not need to save costs at this level;In addition, the fuel tank is located between the rear subframe and the battery pack, and is not placed behind the subframe, which is not only trimmed, but also a safety measure.
As for the extended-range version of the engine for this shooting, it is now considered to be a question answer, and the biggest possibility in the previous analysis is the fifth-generation 15TGDI depth Miller engine, look at the test vehicle information visual appearance of the H4J15 engine model in the card, that's right!It is it, the judgment is correct, the only thing that is confused is what does "up-drive generator" mean?I checked the drive motor of the Star Era ES sedan coupe that has been declared in the catalog, and now it has added a drive motor ** businessOf course, I can't rule out the possibility of thinking too much.
There is another detail, pay attention to the EMS calibration development, the words PT-5, this is really a bit too fierce, that is to say, the credibility of the rumors that the rumors that may be listed at the end of the first quarter of next year are really not low, and the test cars filmed this time have reached the PT-5 stage, and then after a winter cold test, it is really close to being listed.
The cabin can only be photographed to this extent, to be honest, I can't see too many details, but I feel that the engine is really small in size, and the whole cabin seems to be relatively empty.
The interior of the high-quality author list is nothing to write about.,It's almost exactly the same as the pure electric version.,The electronic pocket gear doesn't seem to be ready to change.,Everything else is the same.,But there's another detail.,Look carefully at the lower end of the central control column.,It's full.,It was originally estimated that there would be a storage compartment behind the cover or something.,Now it seems to be thinking too much.。
Since this batch of test cars has reached the PT-5 stage, it basically means that the test has been carried out for a period of time, and the next step may be to prepare for the alpine test (the shooting time is the end of September, and I didn't think about it until now).
